there hasn't been any changing of the israel and palestinian peace treaty or demonizing of israel and saying the palestinians are all good and israel's position is entirely indefensible and he has not sounded like the iranians, for example. i am hopeful he is trying to find a middle job. but keeping weapons out of the gaza strip is a difficult proposition yet if you try to blockade the place you caught the other problem of great antagonism in the palestinian and arab movements and population. so it is a thankful and impossible task but the instinct is to navigate the middle ground. >>shepard: our government and other western nations is your sense have enough sway although hamas, it is the muslim brotherhood by another name, they are so well connected? >>guest: we have to pick and choose our battles because if we try to call every shot we are not going to have enough sway. he is the response to mubarak who we supported for three decades and that fact we got mubarak out is not enough to compensate. morrissey will have -- morsi wil have a different agenda. we do not want an oppressive su

launch a ground war and they have proven they can stand up to israel and they are claiming that israel and the world negotiated because of their rockets attacks not despite them and they achieved the promise of the blockade of gaza. and contrast that with the leadership of their rival party, led by palestinian president who preach add nonviolent approach to negotiations with israel, in the eyes of many palestinians, that has achieved little. that could be perception rather than reality but perception sometimes is reality there and powerful israeli voices agree. the former chief of the israeli defense forces, now a political rival of binyamin netanyahu, says the goals of hiation were not reached and the next round is only a matter of time. we should not have stopped at this stage. hamas got stronger and we did not gain deterrent. prime minister binyamin netanyahu would say his goal immediately was to stop rocket attacks and he did that and wait and see. >>gregg: are there historical parallels here? >>jonathan: if you accept the premise, as many middle east experts do, that what has has

in the middle of it is israel. the fox report's jonathan hunt is live at the united nations with more. what is the argument? >>jonathan: the main united states concern and those others who opposed this bid by the palestinians is the palestinians could try to take advantage of u.n. recognition to use other international institutions to criticize israel publicly. most notably, the international criminal court. palestinians previously have indicated they will press war crime charges against israel using the court over the sort of violence we have seen recently and in year's past in gaza. u.s. officials believe that kind of move and this bid if unilateral statehood will lessen rather than improve the chance for peace. israeli officials agree. >> they can get paper from the u.n. but they will not move peace forward or make palestinian stood hood more real. the only change to change reality and to build future is through peace talks. >>jonathan: but in the absence of the pest talks palestinians are determined to ignore u

>>reporter: eight or nine days ago president morsi was the hero who put cease-fire between israel and hamas but he made a series of decisions that have a lot of people questioning his judgment. he had to walk back some of them. push through a constitution in the dead of night, ignoring the liberal and secular voices in the society it seems to be a substantial mistake. >>shepard: does the military back him? do we know? >>guest: the constitution which i have not read, it appears to keep the military relatively immune from interference by the new parliament. that could leave the military authorities in place. there are two institutions that could pump back against the dictatorship, including the court system. and the other is the military. we have not heard much from the military for some time. >>shepard: thank you from harvard. >>shepard: representatives from every country on this planet will sit down to write new rules for the internet. some of them say they want more control over what we saw. they want the u.n. to take over the thing in a matter of speaking. >>shepard: a republican se

israel is trying to down play the significance of the vote. the last week the israeli officials were saying this was diplomatic terrorism and they have shifted that position to say essentially that the vote taking place lacks substance. early today here in jerusalem a number of right wing activists held a demonstration near a u.n. building, they burned a palestinian flag and voiced their opposition to the vote that is taking place and a number of israels are worried that palestinians because of the vote will be eligible on bring cases such as alleged human right violations to the international human court, israeli's prime minister, netanyahu, earlier described the vote as a set back to the peace poses. >> the only way to achieve peace is law agreements that are reached by the parties directly through direct negotiations teen themselves and not through u.n. resolutions that completely ignore israel's vellets security and national interests. >> despite the prime minister's rejection of the u.n. vote, a small number of left wing israels demonstra

in gaza, israel struck more than 100 targets including hamas government buildings. officials in the palestinian territory set to strike and killed to dozen including to children. we have coverage from jonathan hunt at the united nations but, first, we go to david lee miller on the ground in southern israel. >>reporter: the question, is the cease-fire going to hold? we are about a mile or so from the israeli and gaza border. this city has been pounded relentlessly for years by rocket fire. a short time after the cease-fire took affect local time there was a rocket warning taking place. you can see the city is deserted with people off the streets, people were fearful although there was a cease-fire in place and you can hear obviously the horn coveraging with people in the distance. the sentiment is that, perhaps, the cease-fire was not the way to go. many israelis, or some israelis especially in this community wanted harsher action taken against the palestinian. i can report that in tel aviv today there was for the first time since 2006 a bomb that exploded on a bus.
